Shopping for floors...part 2

We went to look at hardwood floors, since I LOVE hardwood floors. Sad news...hardwood floors are out! The baby's room is 15 1/2 x 12 and even doing it ourselves (with our construction friend's help) was still gonna be close to $800.00 by the time we bought all that we needed. We weren't even looking at the top of the line floors either. So, we decided carpet was the correct route to take. Since we're having to re-do some of our paperwork and having to pay for a lot of that all over again, I just couldn't see paying out that kind of money right now for a hardwood floor in the baby's room. We found and ordered a Berber carpet. I like it and think it will look good in there...of course it's always hard to tell when you only get to see a small sample of the carpet in the store. Even though we had the measurements, they still have to come out and re-measure...which will be done Saturday. Then a few days after that we will be notified that we can schedule for it to be put down. I have to take before and after pictures so you all can appreciate why it was so necessary to replace the carpet that's already in there.

I have found out that hardwood floors are really hard to take care of. I bet the room will be so cute when you have it finished! :)
